Headbutting and throat grabbing during weekend football match

Caroline Williams Reporter from Manukau Courier

Hi neighbours. Five players from Manukau United and three from North Shore United were given red cards for violent conduct during their Northern Regional Football League match on Saturday. A match report stated the violent conduct included headbutting, throat grabbing, striking with excessive force and referred to the incident as "an all in brawl". The match was abandoned and a referee report is pending.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

How is this possible?
